Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Z – First Week Japanese Sales Numbers

The Japanese sales numbers are in for Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Z! In it’s first week in Japan, an estimated 30,192 copies of the PlayStation 3 and 22,901 copies of the PlayStation Vita version were sold. The sales numbers are from analytics company MediaCreate for the period between January 20 and January 26, 2014. They usually provide sales data for the top 20 games sold every week and for those curious, the Xbox 360 version did not make the list. Still, a total of 53,093 copies between the PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita versions is not bad. Saiyan Island did a bit of research and Dragon Ball Z: Ultimate Blast (known as Ultimate Tenkaichi in North America) had sold 44,593 copies back in 2011, while Dragon Ball: Raging Blast 2 sold 47,610 copies. Both sales figures are for the PlayStation 3 version as the games were not released for Vita and did not make the top 20 for Xbox 360.

Take a look at the top 20 games by sales in Japan between the period of January 20 and January 26, 2014 below.
